General :: Find The Location Of A Package On A Machine?
Mar 4, 2011
I am trying to find the location of a package on my linux machine. There are several commands that i have tried like 'rpm -ql kernel-headers-2.6.32-71.18.1.el6.x86_64' but this is no good.
I also tried the following command 'rpm2cpio kernel-headers-2.6.32-71.18.1.el6.x86_64 | cpio --list! But I get a msg saying "kernel-headers-2.6.32-71.18.1.el6.x86_64: No such file or directory"So I decided to download the rpm and when I tried to install it I get "package kernel-headers-2.6.32-71.18.1.el6.x86_64 is already installed"Is there any way I can find out the location of this file??? It is not in any of the /usr folders (bin, lib, lib64, include etc...)

Using rpm -qa | grep -i <pkgname> gives if a package is installed or not.
But, I would like to find out where a package is already installed i.e the location where a particular package is installed say /opt/<pkg>

I know there's a which command, that echoes the full name of a binary (e.g. which sh). However, I'm fairly sure there's a command that echoes the package that provides a particular binary. Is there such a command? If so, what is it? I'd like to be able to run this:
commandName ls and get coreutils for example.

I just installed the xubuntu-desktop package on my netbook (running UNR), and I've got one major complaint about xfce.
I can't right-click on icons in the Applications menu and add them to the launcher!Instead I have to know the location of the executable for the application, so that I can right-click the panel, add a launcher, and then type the location of the executable in and manually select an icon for it...Of course it probably wouldn't be a pain if I could find everything. In Windows, if I want to know the location of a program that's running, I just open Task Manager, right-click the application, and select Properties.
Is there some equivalent or command-line way of finding the location of a running application in Linux?
A few I'd like to know the location of are:
1) Gnome System Monitor
2) Terminal
3) Swiftfox
... and I'll probably think of others.
Even though I'm using XFCE, I figured this fell under the "all variants" category since my main question is just how to find the locations of executables...

Is there a flag or option to discard case sensitivity to find whether package is installed or not?
from http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-query-parts.html
Quote:
Note, however, that RPM is a bit picky about specifying package names. Here are some queries for the C library that won't work:
Code:
rpm -q libc-5.2.1

I just updated a laptop to 11.04. I'm trying to find the best location for wireless in a marginal environment, but am somewhat frustrated by the "improvements" ... I would not have updated, except that the usb TP-LINK TL-WN722N didn't work on 10.04 ... it works fine on 11.04.
But, now when I put the cursor on the wireless icon I don't get the %strength message like I did on 10.04. Is there a way to re-enable this? I suspect that this is a problem created with the "wonderful" indicator applet?

I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and tomcat 6 java servlet container. I am trying to run the tomcat server on port 80, so I edited tomcat's configuration file (server.xml) and changed the default port from "8080" to "80". I launched tomcat server, went to my browser and entered:[url], but it says can not find server/location. Then I edit the server.xml and revert back to port "8080" and then enter: [url] and everything works fine. So my guess is some other service is taking up port 80, but I would think not, since I just installed Ubuntu and made sure apache isn't installed or running.
So I went to "System" --> "Administration", then choose "Network Tools". I then executed Netstat and did not see anything taking up port 80, but I do see port 8080 taken (assuming it is the tomcat server). Then I also did a Port Scan and entered my IP number. Again, I don't see port 80 taken, but do see 8080 being used.
I had a winxp laptop computer behind home wireless and was running tomcat 6 server fine with it, but it over-heated and died recently. So I got a used laptop and just installed Ubuntu 9.10. I have not changed my wireless router settings. It is the same as before. So I have ruled out my home's hardware/network equipment.
So here now I sit, wondering what is up?
For security reasons, is port 80 initially blocked by Ubuntu for some reason? Is there something I have to do beforehand to free up port 80?

Going from Fedora 12 to 13. Got to the point where I have to reboot to install, system reboots to 12. This is a triple boot system with Open Suse and Mint, and the grub2 bootloader from Mint is the bootloader for the whole shebang. In the "how to use preupgrade" instructions there's a line that says "dentify the drive and partition of your Fedora /boot folder." How? If that sounds odd, consider that in my set up "computer" shows 4 partitions (and with just three operating systems..?). I can mount them, but have a problem telling which sytem is Fedora, Suse or Mint. And getting the FEDORA bootloader to find the PREUPGRADE kernel ... Momma said there'd be days like this.
cat /etc/fstab just returned /dev/sda1 on /boot. I installed Fedora first, before Suse or Mint, so being on the first drive or partition sounds right, but the multiple drives throws me, and "just guessing" doesn't seem like the way to go.

I have been testing ubuntu 10.10 maverick, it has some nice features. Anyway I am missing the possibility of writing manually the folder you want to go on nautilus using the Location bar. It was used to have some kind of icon which you can click and it switched between graphich breadcrumbs or the location of the folder and you could changed it manually, you know what I mean?
